Prologue
Kiera Lane
“Do not go inside the building, Kiera. It looks abandoned, but there is surveillance everywhere. Go around. The American helicopter is in the back, and my husband will cut the feed for one minute so you can hide on board.”
“What about you? You have to come with me—and the girls.”
“It’s too risky. I am not leaving. My work is here.
My family. But you need to go home. They know you’re alive, and they won’t stop looking.
Here, put this on. My brother will escort you as far as he can, and then you are on foot.
You will also have this. Report to me when you are at the address so we can turn off the surveillance around the helicopter. ”
“Oh God, I’m gonna throw up.”
“Better now than later. It’s going to be a bumpy ride. You must find something to hold on to in the helicopter, and stay hidden until you land again.”
